What is the charge of an atom after it gains an electron during the formation of a bond?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<em>D. One negative charge</em>

Explanation:

During the formation of a bond, if an atom gains an electron, after that it will be left with a negative charge compared to the atom before the bond is formed. This is because in these types of bonds, which are <em>ionic bonds</em>, there is a <em>transfer of electrons between atoms</em>, there will be one or more atoms that yield electrons that will be captured by another and other atoms that gain them, and the difference of charges produced by this transfer of electrons, will cause the union to occur due to the attraction between electrostatic forces.

If you have a neutral atom before joining, and it gains an electron to form a bond,<em> it will have one electron more than its initial state</em> (in the initial state, the number of protons and electrons is the same, because the atoms they are electrically neutral), so having an extra electron will make it have a negative charge, since there will be a difference between the number of protons and electrons that the atom possesses. <em>This is why the correct answer is D. </em>

In the case of <em>response A and B</em>, <em>the atom could only remain positively charged if it loses electrons</em>, but as in this case it wins, <em>they are not correct</em>.

<em>The answer C is also not correct</em> because only one electron wins, so that it is left with two negative charges, <em>it should gain two electrons during the bond formation.</em>

Why do chemical equations need to be balanced?
velikii [3]
Because if they are not balanced, then the amount of reaction is not equal to the amount of the product. You must have the same ratio of atoms on both sides of the equation because we are not losing moles of each element.

In the unbalanced equation given below, what is the element that is gaining electrons?
viktelen [127]

Hey there!:

HCl + MnO2 → MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2

* in HCl the oxidation state of Cl is -1 .

* on the product side the oxidation state is 0 .

* therefore Cl gains electrons .

* in  MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4

* in MnCl2 the oxidation state of Mn is +2

Therefore Mn loses electrons

Answer A

Hope That helps!
